Emiliana Finally Came Home

Missionary - TS Dear praying friends,

Little Emiliana finally came home from the hospital last week!  She spent the first three months of her life in intensive care.  As you remember, she was at risk of having one of her legs amputated but God mercifully heard many prayers on her behalf.  Finally, she had to have her toes amputated and then she spent several more weeks battling problems with her pancreas after the surgery.  The hospital was 6 hours away from her in the big city of Guadalajara.  The first day she came home her mom brought her to the Tuesday Kids' Club to thank all the kids who had been praying for her.  The kids were so happy to see her and encouraged to see the way that God granted their prayer requests for her.

Would you please also be in prayer for our fellow-worker, Ingrid Giles?  Ingrid is facing some challenging health issues and may have to spend some time in the USA.  Please pray for peace for her as she decides whether to stay in Jerez or to go up to Arizona to get this taken care of.

In Christ,

Todd and Barb Schierkolk
